Announcing Scallywag Cask Strength Batch 2

Scallywag Speyside Malt first launched in 2013, in homage to the Douglas Laing family’s long
line of Wire Fox Terriers, and is now sold in over 40 markets worldwide.

The new Limited Edition release is created using only the finest Speyside Malts, including
those distilled at Mortlach, Macallan and Glenrothes Distilleries. Just 4800 bottles of this
rare breed are available globally, a number that is proudly displayed on the product’s gift
tube. The striking, gold foiled packaging features a somewhat startled Scallywag, his ears
perked and his monocle blasted off, having just experienced his first taste of the spicy,
fruity, chocolatey dram.

“Recently awarded “Brand Innovators of the Year 2016” at the World Whiskies Awards, we
at Douglas Laing & Co continually strive to be leaders of the pack in creative packaging and
seek to fill an even greater spirit into the bottle. I believe this latest all-Speyside Cask
Strength canine creation doggedly embodies that philosophy by combining a very fun pack
with a seriously good quality Whisky, not to be sniffed at. The vatting created for Scallywag
Cask Strength #2 combines some really fructiferously-spiced Spanish Sherry Butts with
specially selected vanilla driven bourbon hogsheads, and proves, though I may say so myself,
that there’s life in the old dog yet!”

Scallywag Speyside Malt Scotch Whisky and Scallywag Cask Strength #2 are both offered
with a complimentary, limited edition Father’s Day card at www.douglaslaing.com and
selected specialist Whisky retailers globally for a limited time only.

Official Tasting Notes:

Cask Strength Scallywag has a deep, dark colour – extracted from the many fine Spanish
Sherry Butts selected. On the nose, it carries a rich, orange marmalade character,
complemented by cinnamon and warm ginger. On the big, chewy palate, detect warmingly
spiced apple and rhubarb crumble, with a distinct coffee note. Vanilla from our specially
selected bourbon hogshead casks becomes apparent too, alongside a sweet raisin and fudge
quality. The long and fruity finish displays dark chocolate and toasted oaks against a sweet
and juicy backdrop.
